Dedicated to the memory of Harry
Harry was much loved by everyone around him. He loved his family more than anything in the world and would do anything for them. He had a wicked sense of humour and loved to play pranks on his friends and family. He loved to spend time in the garden, particularly in the sunshine, which is why he has chosen his final resting place at Clandon Wood - asking specifically to be laid to rest somewhere where he will be in the sun and at one with nature all day long. We love you Harry and we hope that you are causing mischief and making people laugh wherever you are - just rest assured that you will forever be in our hearts.

In loving memory of a perfect brother. Despite all of his health problems, I never heard him complain ever. It was always a joy to come down to Guildford to help in the garden.

PARDON ME FOR NOT GETTING UP
Oh dear, if you're reading this right now,
I must have given up the ghost.
I hope you can forgive me for being
Such a stiff and unwelcoming host.
Just talk amongst yourself my friends,
And share a toast or two.
For I am sure you will remember well
How I loved to drink with you.
Don't worry about mourning me,
I was never easy to offend.
Feel free to share a story at my expense
And we'll have a good laugh at the end.

GONE, BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
Don’t think of him as gone away
His journey’s just begun,
Life holds so many facets
This earth is only one.
Just think of him as resting
From the sorrows and the tears
In a place of warmth and comfort
Where there are no days and years.
Think how he must be wishing
That we could know today
How nothing but our sadness
Can really pass away.
And think of him as living
In the hearts of those he touched
For nothing loved is ever lost
And he was loved so much.

ONE AT REST
Think of me as one at rest,
for me you should not weep
I have no pain no troubled thoughts
for I am just asleep
The living thinking me that was,
is now forever still
And life goes on without me now,
as time forever will.
If your heart is heavy now
because I've gone away
Dwell not long upon it friend
For none of us can stay
Those of you who liked me,
I sincerely thank you all
And those of you who loved me,
I thank you most of all.
And in my fleeting lifespan,
as time went rushing by
I found some time to hesitate,
to laugh, to love, to cry
Matters it now if time began
If time will ever cease?
I was here, I used it all,
and now I am at peace.
